    2008 BYU Cougars

    Without a good Tight End, BYU's offense has always struggled against a good defense. In their offense, the TE opens up the passing game and helps solidify the running game.

    Texas WR Jordan Shipley

    After Jordan Shipley's fantastic game on national TV against Oklahoma, I had to dig up this old thread and get it going again. After an injury plagued career, it is great to see Shipley having a great senior season. For those of us that followed his record setting high school career, we...

    White WRs 2008

    Ryan Tannehill of Texas A&M set a freshman receiving record in yesterday's loss to K-State. 12 rec for 210 yds. This is from a kid who was battling for the starting QB position during two-a-days. Much like another Kerry Meier. Johnson, Tannehill put up big numbers, but loss stings...

    White sprinters slowing down?

    Waterbed, check out this site, http://www.thesportjournal.org/article/speed-training-progra m-high-school-football-players. I used a similar program back in college to improve my speed. The book, Sports Speed that is mentioned on the website is a very good source for improving speed. I...

    Logan Dold

    Kansas State freshman running back Logan Dold went off against Texas A&M yesterday. Due to injury to the starting RB, Dold was given the start and didn't disappoint. I haven't even heard of this kid until yesterday, but his high school bio is very impressive. From K-State's site: Of...

    White RBs 2008

    Wow, three 100 yd white rushers from BCS conferences in one weekend. When is the last time that has happened?

    3 interceptions including one that was returned 100 yds for a TD as Michigan was getting ready to score.

    Sam McGuffie

    McGuffie was the leading rusher and receiver for Michigan today in a losing effort. 25 carries for 105 yds and 5 rec for 44 yds.

    RB-Ryan Swope

    Swope has had a disappointing senior season so far. Austin Westlake is 2-4 and Ryan has been battling a thigh injury. He is still one of the rushing leaders in Central Texas with 709 yds on 113 carries (6.27 ypc, down from last year's 9 ypc) with 6 TDs. Last night he had a good game with 183...

    RB - Bo Snelson

    Snelson is showing his versatility this season. The starting QB went down with an injury so Bo stepped in at QB (a position that he has never played) midway through the season. Last night's game he rushed for 162 yds and 3 TDs and passed for 90 yds and a TD. He still leads the Houston area in...

    RB/S - Rex Burkhead

    Burkhead had another great game last night with 267 all purpose yds (202 yds rushing, 65 yds receiving). Plano is undefeated and will make a deep run into the playoffs thanks to Rex.

    Economic Crisis unlike 1929 depression

    Absolutely, timing is everything. Alot of people are waiting to see where it bottoms out before they jump in. Warren Buffet made his billions by bargain hunting in tanking markets.

    Economic Crisis unlike 1929 depression

    I read in the Wall Street Journal opinion page today a quote from a Nobel Prize economist. He said that "they (the Fed, Treasury, Congress) are pushing on a string that can only be straightened by the pull of buyers." Buyers of homes, stocks, cars, etc. No matter what the gov't does it isn't...

    2008 Texas Longhorns

    I believe that Blake Gideon is starting at Safety. If he's not starting, he is getting a lot of playing time.

    Jake Sharp

    Check out the 42 yd shuttle pass reception by Sharp. I counted 4 missed tackles where the defenders got nothing but air. Very impressive run.

    Jake Sharp

    What happened this season to cause Mangino to think that Sharp wasn't the guy? He averaged over 7 yds a carry last year and was a big part of their success. I didn't watch the game on Saturday, but in the highlights he looked very impressive and displayed tremendous speed on those long runs...

    RB - Bo Snelson

    Snelson has put on about 10 lbs in the offseason, so he is around 185 lbs or about the same size as McGuffie. Scout.com has his 40 time at 4.6, but I have yet to find where they got that time since he hasn't run at any camps. When watching him, he seems plenty fast and never gets caught from...

    RB - Bo Snelson

    In tonight's game, Snelson goes 17 att for 236 yds (13.88 ypc) and 4 TDs. That gives him 806 yds in only 4 games this season with 10 TDs. He is now leading the Houston area in rushing and tied for first in scoring. It is too bad that no D1 programs are recruiting him and according to...

    Rejoice! You won!

    The credit crunch is real and will be felt by everyone real soon. I have a wholesale business that sells and distributes outdoor sporting goods. My customers (retail sporting goods stores and independent stores) have sent me letters begging for longer term payment agreements because they...

    God / Life After Death

    I remember studying the Big Bang theory in a college physics class and there are two philosophies out there. One is the theory that everyone is familar with that has already been discussed (marble size matter exploding). The other theory is that the universe expands and contracts in cycles...

    White RBs 2008

    Not likely, he is a small, fast player for the Air Force who is only a sophmore. How many players just like him have come through the Academy without getting a sniff from the NFL?
